Stand with us for a green future

We need your financial support to help us persuade Premier Wynne to choose the smart options that will actually lower our electricity bills and create a renewable energy future for our children.

Unfortunately, Premier Wynne has doubled down on the 1950s solution – nuclear power. She is proposing to spend tens of billions of dollars to extend the life of Canada’s oldest nuclear station – Pickering – and to re-build 10 aging reactors at the Darlington and Bruce Nuclear Stations. According to Ontario Power Generation, this will cause its price of nuclear power to rise by 180% over the next 10 years.

Instead of tapping the abundant, and zero emissions power of the wind, water and sun, we will remain dependent on inflexible, high-risk nuclear reactors (while absorbing the inevitable huge cost overruns on reactor re-build projects) and continue to create large piles of radioactive waste that we don’t have anywhere to store safely in the long term.

But we need your support to persuade Premier Wynne to say “no” to the nuclear special interest lobby and “yes” to a green electricity future and lower bills for Ontario’s consumers.Please click here to make a donation today.
